The seductive, smoky, burnt-caramel aroma leads to complex malt flavours, roast barley notes and hints of spicy resin and vanilla oak in the finish.

This dark-mahogany old ale has been brewed again exclusively for this Wetherspoon real ale festival 2015.

Cask @ Moon Under Water, Manchester. Copper with a small creamy head. Has a lightly sweetened character, maybe with some marzipan. Malty-fruity in the main.
